' Wcrsaus March 6.—It is Just known here that
tbe creator part of the Russian troops will leave
tho kingdom. The first division will set out on
the 1st of fipril, mid -by tbe 1st of May all will
have left Poland, except a small corps. As
these troops will not remain upon (he ‘frontier,
but are to be distributed in the interior of Russia,
this measure is equivalent to a reduction of the
Russian army. Tho alarming reports of tbe vast
projects of Russia to assume a dictatorial autho
rity in Europe appear now to be mere fables.

fresh reports from tho delegate at Ancona lay
the undersigned Cardinal Secret try oT Stale un
der tbe disagreeable necessity of addressing fresh
complaints to your excellency, lu spite of the
proclamations of General Cornieren, and his as
surances that-he docs not intend to meddle with
-the pontifical igovernment. but, on the contrary,
wishes to protect the authorities, respect the laws,
and repress the factious, rite adjutant major, Sic.
dales, has ordered that two persons confined for
political crimes should be provisionally liberated.
At the instance of I'reuch officers, an air allego
rically alluding to liberty was introduced in an o-
pert, which produced the most lively enthusi
asm among the factions, ami excited seditious
cries acaiust the government of his Holiness,
cries twitch were heard "with impunity in tin-
streets. Printed and writtcu placards, exciting
the people to.revolt, are public-ally posted on the
walls. Persons banished by the Pontifical Gov
ernment, «nd excluded from last year's amnesty,
at* freely admitted iutu the society of those ve
ry officers who are said to be sent for the pur-
pose of maintaining the Pontifical authority.
Comparing these facts with tho assurances
given by your excellency in your note of tbe'SStb
of February, which promised that General Cor-
' '-biores, possessed, ofjhe views of tho French Gov
ernment, was bringing a fresh support to the
temporal authority or the lloly Father, and to-tho
independence and' integrity of his states, it only
-remains with the undersigned to request.your
Excellency to figure to yourself the sail impres
sions which tho recent report from the delegate
of Ancona have produced in the mind of tho Ho
ly Father; and ho requests you at the same time
•to consider how, just oml positive were the rea-
■ soilings which the uuderxigued adduced in his
former notes, viz. that the occupation of Ancona
by the Freuch troops, fur from contributing to
-the re-establishment of tranquility, had given oc
casion to the renewal of past disorders, hi spite
•of all the declarations made ngaiust the assertion.
The undersigned omits observing upon other
facts, which, being directly contrary to the honor
of tho French troops, he doubts not will be re?
paired at once. Among others, permission was
not given to the Pontifical troops, who retired
from Ancona by their sovereign's order, to carry
•off their own effects which thoy had in the bar
racks. They were not allowed to take their car
touches, nor to have them sent to the auxiliary
troop, nor were they permitted ( to take die drn
goon horses. We must therefore protest in the
name of tho Holy Father against all these nets,
derogatory to the Pontifical sovereignty, in order
that the rights of . His Holiness may be guaran-
' teed actually find for the future.

The natural consequences of the rash net of
the commandant of the United States’corvette
Lexington at the Falkland Islands begin to deve
lop# themselves. The government, yielding to
the demands of public sentiment in regard to
the United States' consul, G. \V. Slocunl, has
been pleased to withdraw from him his txequelur.
at the same time authorising him to appoint a
substitute until tho two governments can coma
to an understanding on tho affair in question.
The decree directing the suspension of Mr.' Slo
cum, was yesterday made known officially to the
Register of the Port, who, in order lo avoid the
embarrassments which might result in the clcar-
i ing of Amcricnn vessels, addressed a note to Mr.

mcrican vessels as were in bis possession, until
bis substitute’should be appointed and recognized.
This note, was returned uuopened,—propahly be

- has made a formal complaint to the Government
«f this iribnlt; and its order thereon is expected
soon to be issued.
• Wo are informed that Mr. Slacum refuses ei

Washington, April 21.
Yesterday there was a stirriug debate in the
Senate, mi tho motion to strike out the appropri
ation for nn outfit for a Minister to Frauce, in the
room of Mr. Rives, who is expected to return
home, on leave of absence, during tho autumn.—
The two most animated speakers were Mr. Web
ster aud Mr. Hayno, being both ou the same side-
in reference to the motion which was pending-—
Mr. Unvuu Was provoked by a remark made by
General Smith, the Chairman of the Committee
on Fiuatiee, titai till the noise against tho last ad
ministration was mere clamor, aud that the ad
ministration hud gone on well enough. Air.
Hayno replied iu some such language as this—
“The Senator from Maryland did not attempt to
show that the present administration had redeem
ed their pledges, hut said tho charge against the
last was all clamor, aud that' all tho adihimstra-
turns had gone ou well. What a situation (con
tinued Sir. Hayno) does this place us in, who did
joiu (it tho clamor, who believed the last adminis
tration wiih extravagant, who had used the influ
ence we possessed to extend this opinion, who
had inscribed the charge on our banners, who
fought the battle, and who made enemies of those
'in whom we had acted. Aud the geutleman
from Alarylaud now tells us that the present ad
ministration hits done as well as tbe last/’ Air.
New O&leans, April 18.
Afmco.—From a gentleman who quitted Vera
Cruz the 7th imp we have been obliged -with the
following particulars:—'That'General Facia had
joined General Calderon wmt a reinforcement of
1,300 men, aid that of the prisoners taken in the
KCtion of Tolome, the greater part has solicited to
have their services accepted against their former
eader. Tho total force ef General Calderon be
fore Vera Cruz is estimated es amounting to about
5,000 men; and that the three roads leading from
the interior to Vera Cruz were occupied by him.
Geueral Santa Anna still kept possession of .the
town and fortress,-and had a achr.-and a brig of
10 guns under his command. He frequently di
rected hit fire to tho position where the govern
ment troops were stationed, but tbo firing was
noiretumod. Ho also informs as that a gun-boat.,
of which mention was made somotiwe since as ha-,
via 15 been given by General Santa Anna, in com-
• wkud.’te a man of the name - of> Riband, known
here for his piratical practices, had attempted to
Aw upon the government troops, but was driven
off, the said Rihand having lost one ofhis arms'.'—
. The opinion of the getulemaa bringing these par
ticulars iij that in* all probability, .Vera. Cruz has
by this time surrendered, or, If not, that it cannot
possibly bold out Icog. '
• - lies satisfactorily known that every State had

"• ■, WssutxoTotv, April 20.
' la the Senate, yesterday, a menage we* recorv-
froze the President of the United States, by
Mr. Dooehoo, bb secretary, transmitting printed
®f *«eh of the Iudi as treaties lately conclu
ded. The Senste, on motion of Mr. Smith, re-
wowderadon of the geueral an
ntlOB bill, tad several amendments made ii
llnyne went ou to say that ho held the President
to be responsible for tho pledges he had made
when he came into office, that be brought a mi-
ofity iuto Congress with him, and that if he could
tave influenced bis friends, he could have surely
redeemed all his pledges. He stated that if hu
had been aware that it was to be a miserable
scramble for the loaves and fishes, to which alt
tlte professions of tho Jackspu party'wero tp de
generate, ho would ntjvcr have engaged iu it. If,
to Said, a mentbor oflho party voted ‘against any
principle which the adnduistratioh uud been
pledg.jd to sustain, it n as over-looked and thought
nothing of, so that be voted for the appoiutinent-
of Geueral Jackson to office. But let him vote
against any appointment, and tbe whole keunel
was turned out agaiust you. Tray, Blanch, aud
Sweelhotrt were at your heels, and nil the pen
sioned press spat its venom upon you. He. de
clared that be should hold tho administration to
their pledges, and the President to his. Air. For
syth', in a tone of some levity, not very well suited
to the gravity .-of tho subject, said tno President
had given no pledges, and that he was not bound
to redeem the pledges made, in his name, by his
friends. He intimated that tho overwholuiuing
tupularity of Gen. Jackson, which elected him
n tbe first instance would easily secure his re-
election, and that however ho jnigbt bo assailed
for his inconsistencies the people could not be
brought to vote against him. Air. Webster utado
a most able and emphntic speech, which riveted
the httentiou of,the rienate, in which he put it to
South Carolina, to Virginia, mid to Pennsylvania,
to say how they all could go in favor of a President
who had so modified bisopinions os to suit alt tho
different feelings, opinious & habits or the North &
South. Some poriious ofhis speech wero speci
mens of nmsdulino eloquence. The debate is
Ijkcly to continue through Alouday, tho 'time to
which the Senate adjourned, Governor Miller ha'
viug the floor.
The House was thronged nil day yesterday, to
hear Gov, Houston's trial, which shuts out all the

Washimotos, April 24.
In the Senate, yesterday, two messages were
received from the President of the United States—
one, transmitting a report front the Secretary of
State, recommending the passage of a law making
it penal to counterfeit the foreign coins iu circula
tion; aud the other, transmitting a report from the
Secretary of the Treasury, in relation to the pub
lic lauds, prepared in obedience to tho resolution
of the 26t!i Alareh last. The motion of Air. Hen
dricks, for the reconsideration of tho vote, on or
dering the bill providing for extending the means
of vaccination to the Indians to its third reading,
was taken up, and the vote was reconsidered.
Air. Frelinghuyseo then submitted an amendment,
which was adopted after a short debate; and on
motion of Air. Grundy, the bill was recommitted,
with instructions, to the Committee on Indian
Affaire. The. morning’s business having been
concluded, the consideration of the appropriation
bill was resumed, aitd the debate of Friday was
continued by Messrs. Miller, Clayton, Tyler,
Clay, Smith, Holmes, King, Bibb, Sprague, ami
Forsyth. JJn taking the question, the amend
ment made in Committee of the Whole was con
curred in, yeas 23, nays 21. So the appropria
tion of $9,000, for the outfit of a mittister to
France, was striken out of tlte bill. After adopt
ing some amendments, and rejecting others, the
Senate adjourned.
lu tho House of Representatives, a message
was received from the President of the United
States, transmitting a report of the Secretary of
State, suggesting the propriety of passing a law
makiug it criminal to counterfeit, within the li
mits of the United States, the coins of foreign na
tions. On the motion of Air. Ellsworth, it was
referred to tho Committce ou the Judiciary. A
variety of petitions and memorials were after
wards*presented. Air. Pcnrce submitted a reso
lution on the subject of the recent arrest of Dr.
Samuel G. Hotye, by the authorities of the king
dom of Prussia. Air. Drayton offered a resolu
tion providing for the embodyiug into ono act, by
the Secretary of Waf, all the various laws on the
subject of tho army, which was laid on the table
ono day. Resolutions were presented also by Mr.
Ditncatr, Air. Slade, and Air, Mardis; and Air.
Bullard laid before the House certain resolutions
of the legislaturo of Louisiana, on the subject of
the'rcnewal of the. bank charter, aud tho con
struction of a ship channel from New Orleans to
the Gulf of Mexico. Ou the expiration of the
hour, the House proceeded to tho trial of General
Houston. Tho nccused was conducted to the bar,
attended, as before, by the Scrgeunt-at-Arms,
and by his counsel, Air. F. S; Key. Tlte testi
mony delivered on Saturday liy Colonel Cave
Johnson of Tennessee, was read over, and that
gemlernnu was further examined by the counsel
lor the accused, aud by various racmbaai of the
House, as to tho feeliugs manifested, and vfc lan
guage used' by General Houston, on tbe tercet
of the remarks of Air. Stanbery, and tbe circum
stances attending tho delivery ofibe note from kbe
accused to'the latter. »
At tho request of the counsel for the accused,
Mr. Senator Grundy was then .sworn and exam
ined. lie stated that Gen. Houston had'been at
bis (Mr. G’s.) room, on tbe evening on which the
assault took place; and that he was cugaged in a
light and pleasant conversation with himself (Mr.
G. ,) Mr. Buckner, and Mr. Blair, in the course of
which Mr. II. related tome amusing anecdotes,
until within a few minutes previous to its occur
rence. lie spoke, also, ns to tbo impressiou which
prevailed, that Air. Houston at as disabled in the
right arm from tlte effects of a wound received in
buttle. ' 1
■ Mr. Senator Buckner was next sworn and ex
amined. He stated the circumstances' attending
thtF conversation as related by Air. Grundy; and
said that, altenvards, os he was standing at the
'door of the boarding house with Mr. Blutr, Gov.
H. took' each of them by an arm, and they walk
ed up tlio Avenue. They continued their light
conversation, and proee'eded its far as the street
leading to-tho City Hall, when Air. H. said,in re
ply to an invitation of Air. Blair, to return, that
he had company at home and could not go. Mr.
Blair retired. Be (Air. Buckner) was convers
ing with Mr. Houstou, and asking him a question,
wbeu Air. Stanbery. appeared; crossing*the street.
.Mr. II. did not reply to Air. B.’s question; hut on
Air. S. placing his footou the pavement, he was
asked by. Air. II. If that was Air. StauberyJ Air.
■$. replied very politely, with a bow, yes, sir; and
with that Air. Houston with an oath, called him a
rascal, and struck him. Air. Buckner proceeded
to detail tlte further circutns'tmiccs attending the
•assault. He was further iuterrognted by mem
bers of tho House; nfter which, Dr. Ilall was

jfff.Senator Tipton, of Indiana, was next ex-
tfMwderea m a thu-d reu«m a . ’fho
general appropriation hill was taken -ip, and the
motion to reconsider the vote by which the a-
mendment increasing tho appropriation for the
expenses of the Judiciary of tbe United States
from «1«U.000 to $250,U00 was rejected, was a-
"reed to, and after a loug debate, the amendment
was rejected by a vole of 18 to 26. Several u-
lueodmeuts were then adopted, aud the bill as n-
utended was ordered to be engrossed for a third
reading. Tito Apportionment bill was taken up
uud rend u wcoud time* .
lu tbe House of Representatives, the whole of
the sitting of yesterday was occupied in the fur
ther bearing Of the case of tho alleged brolch of
privilege by Samuel Houston. 'All tlte witnesses
present were examined before the silting 'closed,
and ueillier party proposed to iniroJuco any oth
er, though it was intimated as possible that some
other might be introduced- n heu the i videnee
was closed, 'Mr. Stanbery said, if it was tlte plea-
»«re of the House on tbis occasion to go into tbe
further examination of the contemplated fraud a*
charged by him, he wan ready to introduce evi
dence which would! iu his opinion, place the
truth of the charge beyond doubt. Whereup
on Mr. Polk expressed a hope that the House
would not further pursue that inquiry in this
form, pledging himself, however, if no other
mpmber did so, to institute an inquiry by the
I louse into the whole mutter, w ith a firm belief
that it would result iu the acquittal of all per
sons charged as being concerned in an inteuliou
to defraud the Government. ’
The further hearing of the case was then post
poned to this day at 11 o’clock, w hen the a cens
ed-will be heard in liis defence by his counsel,
should no Other testimony lie theu introduced.
It having been insinuated, iu some of the op
position papers,' (says the Southern Patriot) that
the President was privy to, or cognizant of, an At
tended assault by Gov. Houston on Air. Statibe-
ry, the Washington Globe, of the 18th ult. states
“that the President has never seen nor had any
communication with Gov. Houston, directly or
indirectly, since the insult was offered by Mr.
Stanbery to him, down to the jiresefit moment.”
Wo itnve been Wfortned that all the troops at
Jefferson Barracks (consistingof six companies of
the 6tb lufantry,) are ordered to Rock Island.—
The cause of this movement, we learn,' is to be
as follows: It may be recollected that sometime
last fall, a party of tlje Sack and Fox Indians
meeting with some of the Menonciniees, near
Prairie du Chein, attacked them, and put several
to death. The Alenonimiees of course sought rc-
vengo, but were restrained from going to war, by
the (7. S. Agent's assurances, that the United
States would interfere, and cause tho murderers
to be given up for trial and punishment. Accord -
ingly a demand was made on the Tribe for the
culprits, which was evaded from time to time.
id lias never yet been complied with. The in
jured tribe were beginning to be, impatient, and
threatened to-use their own power of punishment
or retaliation. This would have led to a war be
tween the hostile nations—producing nothing but
certain misery to themselves, and probable injury
to the whites in the neighborhood To avert
these evils, and to secure the execution of justice
the. Secretary of War has thought it expedieut to
send a large military force to the scat of conten
tion.
The troops will be commanded by Brig. Gen
eral Atkinson, and will proceed from Rock Island
to Prario des Cbeins, should the postures of af
fairs seem to require their presence.
Thd elections in Louisiana take place in July.
At a gathering of tho people at Covington, in that
State, on the 9th inst., Alajor Davidson, who is a
candidate to represent that district in Congress,
addressed the people at some length, in the course
of which he said: “I have been cpllcd upon to
express my opinion of the doctrine of Nullifica
tion. I believe it lo be evil, pernicious and un
constitutional—to have sprung from the inven
tions of a set of office haulers, and got upas a po
litical hobby, upon whieh thev expect to ride
into office. This doctrine would, if it were to ob
tain currency, sap the very foundations of our
beautiful, happy and prosperous country—and I
cannot believe that tho decendants of our great
patriots and heroes of the revolution, will give
currency to a doctrine which will so soon destroy
their unparalelled blessings.”

It has been asked, on what principle of consti
tutional right could the President dual out a dif
ferent measure of justice to South Carolina and
Georgia? How, it is demanded, could he tocrcc
South Carolina in the case of arresting a Revenue
law, and not coerce Georgia when die refuses
obedience to tbe mandate of the Supreme Court?
We kuow not what may be the sentiments of du
ty entertained by the Fresideut, when any one of
these States stops the acto n of a Federal law
within her borders. But this nssumes the ideuti-
,ty of Georgia and South Carolina resistance. It
is strange to us that tho broad features of differ
ence between an act of Nullification uud. the pro
ceedings of Georgia should have been overlook
ed. I
la the first place, Georgia interferes with no
law or treaty u£ tho United States, not only ac
cording to her owu construction of the Federal
laws and treaties, but according to the construc
tion of one of the co-ordinate departments of the
f ;overument in tbe formation of both treaties and
a tvs,and of some of the highest judicial mcti in the
Union. Judges. Keut and Spencer of Netv York,
are with Georgia, iu her construction of her rights
tinder the Constitution. Governor Cues? aud
other eminent .individuals all over the Union, are
found to lend the sanction of their authority to tho
conduct of Georgia. What has Georgia, there
fore doue?. She has not said,fliere is a treaty-or
a law of the Federal government, which shall not
be executed within our limits, hut she has pro
ceeded to excrciso within those limits that civil
and criminal jurisdiction which she takes for gran-
ted has not been wrested • from her under any
form of Federal legislation. She presumes that
sho has still that portion of her reserved sovereign
ty which she possessed wbeu she became a party
to tho Federal Constitution. ’
Under thir persuasion she proceeds to do that
which site couccived she had nt any time st right
to do. She affirms that the laws aitd treaties of
the General government, properly interpreted, do
not divest her of the jurisdiction within her owu
territory. Her interpretation it disputed. An
appeal it made to the Court, whose office it is to
expound the Law and tbe Constitution. Geor
gia denies tho right of that tribuual to pass on her
privileges ns a sovereign State. The Court, ami to
not Georgia, therefore, nullifies. The Court nul? hi
lilies the jurisdiction of Georgia. Georgia, as ' *
she look no notice of the progress of the suit—as
she refused to plead, to she consistently declines
to notice the issue of the proceedings. Now, this
is iutclligiblo, Georgia places her resistance on
thogroundof revolution. . If ony forcible attempt
is made to divestherdf her jurisdiction, sho de
clares that sho will resist it by an appeal to arms.
But, In the socoud place, Georgia oppose* a
judgment which is limited and iocal in iu effects.
If South Carolina nullifies, she arrests that which
is genera] m tU operation, and affects the rizhu
and intcresu or other States. The only party
which » said to be injured by the conduct of Geor-
gia, are the Indians within her limit!. The oth-
er parties to be affected hy (be Nullification of
